The PYE challenge really helped me learn that picking the right products in conjuction with protective styling is beneficial for my hair, not just protective styling.

"Thanks for the challenge. having my hair in a protected state most of the time really helped me learn what works for my hair product wise. Before I really couldn't pin point if the styling or the products was causing my hair to be not so fab…"

"That's great! I completely agree that it makes no sense to protect damaged ends. I dusted at the beginning of the challenge for the same reasons you described, and it actually felt really liberating to just cut off them raggedy…"

"I've heard of trimming the ends of twists, but that's really interesting/ genius to stretch with curlformers before trimming. The strands are more individual and straighter. Post pics post- cut! :-) "

In order to achieve the look that I want when Spring/Summer gets here; I've been protective styling, working out and eating well to promote healthy hair and skin. I have however been disappointed in my hair. The…See More

Sorry for not doing an initial blog post, I started back up with grad school (this is my last semester! :D) but let me give you an up to date about my experience with this challenge.
